After all the hassle of complex conversions and difficult kits I felt I'd earned an easy build. Looking around I saw that IBG had released an early P.11B which fitted the bill perfectly. I like IBG kits - they go together easily and are [...]
Well, the first Allied fighter in European WW2 skies anyway. Contrary to some accounts, the Polish Air Force was not destroyed on the ground early, but their aircraft were dispersed to designated War alert fields, having been on a war [...]

Greetings to all iModeler colleagues/friends. My latest kit is another Ltd Models kit - the PZL P.11c in 161 Squadron markings. This plane was on detached service to the Border Protection Corps (Korpus Ochrony Pogranicza - KOP) in 1939. [...]

The markings are [...]
There is not much to say about this kit - an old one from Poland, reboxed by MasterCraft (or MisterCraft) nowadays with a new decals (not good anyway) . A lot of sanding, filling, scribing an so on. But, it's the good old kit from the [...]
